{"product_id":"how-the-weather-was-jean-kavanagh-9781912561551","title":"How the Weather Was","description":"Kavanagh's second collection describes how someone's choices can lead to an interruption of the ordinary, moving in parallel with the seemingly steadfast lives of others. Far from her origins - whether traversing an island in the Arctic on a night bus, or confronted by different stars in the New Zealand sky - the poet faces the challenge of returning to academia, and the kaleidoscope of new relationships, while holding on to the soul of who she used to be. The book's final section opens into this revenant past, for a candid exploration of a trauma from decades before. It is an emotional weather report. The outlook is unsettled, but with the prospect of improving conditions. Jean Kavanagh is an Irish poet living in Norway. In 2012 she was shortlisted for the Patrick Kavanagh Poetry Award.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eAuthor:\u003c\/b\u003e Jean Kavanagh\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-10:\u003c\/b\u003e 1912561557\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eISBN-13:\u003c\/b\u003e 9781912561551\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublisher:\u003c\/b\u003e Salmon Poetry\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eLanguage:\u003c\/b\u003e English\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePublished:\u003c\/b\u003e 09\/19\/2019\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003ePages:\u003c\/b\u003e 116\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eFormat:\u003c\/b\u003e Paperback\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eWeight:\u003c\/b\u003e 0.40lbs\u003cbr\u003e\u003cb\u003eSize:\u003c\/b\u003e 9.10h x 6.00w x 0.40d","brand":"Jean Kavanagh","offers":[{"title":"Paperback","offer_id":48450048688383,"sku":"9781912561551","price":14.95,"currency_code":"USD","in_stock":false}],"thumbnail_url":"\/\/cdn.shopify.com\/s\/files\/1\/0662\/2982\/9887\/files\/img_211acf54-91af-4de0-a868-0aa1b2f44c9e.jpg?v=1777266001","url":"https:\/\/www.whiterainbookhouse.com\/products\/how-the-weather-was-jean-kavanagh-9781912561551","provider":"WR Book House","version":"1.0","type":"link"}
